Ligustrum Japonicum Jack Frost Japanese Privet

Ligustrum Japonicum 'Jack Frost' Japanese Privet is a dense, fast-growing, and disease-resistant shrub with large glossy leaves that are variegated when young and turn a deep olive green upon maturation. It blooms with tiny, cream-colored flowers in upright panicles in late May that give way to round black berries in winter. Japanese Privet thrives in a wide variety of soil conditions in full sun or part shade. This striking evergreen shrub makes wonderful hedges and topiaries and looks equally nice all by itself as an accent planting.
